Fun Facts

Strong Bad's line is a reference to Homestar Runner's line from the first deleted scenes on In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD.
When you scroll over "Downloads", Homestar makes the same sound that the Compy 386 does when you kill the Bad Graphics Ghost in the Strong Bad Email ghosts.
The sound effects for the "Games" button is taken from the Atari 2600 game, Combat. The sound effect that is made when you mouse-over "E-mail" is from the sounds that tanks and planes (in Combat) would make when they shoot. The sound effect when you mouse over the "Characters" button is from the Atari 2600 game, Pitfall! when Pitfall Harry would collect a gold bar, diamond ring, etc. The effect when Strong Bad disappears is from Pac Man for the Atari 2600.
The scrolling road is like a daytime version of Nighttime Driving Type Game from Strong Bad's Message Bored.
The atari joystick made an appearance in Experimental Film.
